Perhaps no local disease has puzzled
and baf11ed the medical profession more
than nasal catarrh. While not immedi-
ately fatal it is among the most distress
ing, nauseous and disgusting ills the flesh
is heir to, and the records show very few
or no cases of radical cures Of chronic
catsrrh- by any of the multitudes of modes
of treatment until the introduction of
Ely's Cream Balm few years ago. The
success of this preparation has been most

Set Fire to His Little Brother.

LEBANON, Pa, April 14.-Durlng
the temporary absence of Mrs. Robert
E. Shay from her residence in this city
this morning her fourteen-year old SOM
Raymond, drew a burning splint from
the stove and pointed IL at the face OF
his little two-year-old brother who was
sitting at the table. The little fellows
clothing was set on FIRE, and before the
flames could be extingaished nearly
every vestige of clothing was burned
from his body. DR.. V. ii. Allweir was
quickly summoned, but on his arrival
it was evident that the child'g injuries
would terminate fatally, which proved
to be the case an hour later. The
burning created great excitement.

Playing Fool.

An industrious young shoemaker
fell into the habit of spending much
time at q saloon near by. One by one
his customers began to desert him.
When his wife demonstrated with him
for so neglecting his work for the sa-
loon he would carelessly reply, 'Oh,
I've just been down little while play
ing pool
His little two-year-old caught the
refrain, and would often ask, is you
goin' down to play fool, papa?'
Smith tried in vain to correct this
word. The child persisted in his
own pronunciation, and day by day,
he accosted his father with sHas you
been playin' fool, papa?'
This made deep impression on the
shoemaker, as he realized that the
question was being answered by the
falling off of his customers and the
growing wants of the household. He
resolved again and again to quit the
pool table, but weakly allowed the
passion of play to hold him long
time. Finally he found himself out
of work, out of money, and out OF
-four. Sitting on his bench one after.
noon idle and respondent, he was
heard to exclaim:
No work again to-day-what l'm
to do I don't know?'
why, papa prattled the baby,
can't you run down and play fool
some more?'
% hushl you poor child groaned
his father shame-stricken. That's the
trouble. Papa has played fool too
much already
But he never played it again, and
to-day This home is comfortable and
happy once more.

New Style Of Saiutation.

During his first visit to Paris, NJ.
Lasalle, distinguished German pre-
sented himself at the house of a we'll
known lady, to whom he had sent let
ters of introduction in advance. When
the servant opened the door and re-
ceived his card she conducted him to
the boudoir and told him to be seated,
saying:
MADAME will come immediately
Presently the lady entered. She
was in deshabille and her feet were
bare; covered only with loose slippers.
She bowed to him carelessly and said
'Ah th ere you are good morning,
She threw herself on sofa, let fell
a slipper, and reached out to Lasalle
her very pretty foot.
Lasalle, natur ally was completely
astounded, but he remembered that at
his home in Germany it was the Gus
tom so metimes to kiss lady's hand,
and he supposed it was the Paris mode
to kiss her foot. Therefore he did
not hesitate to imprint kiss upon the
fascinating foot so near him, but ne
could not avoid saying:
Thank you madam, for this new
mode of makinga lady's acquaintance.
1t is much better and certainly more
generous than kissing the hand.
The lady jumped up, highly indig-
nant.
who are you, sir, and what do you
mean p
He gave his name.
You are not, then, corn doctor {!
Il am charmed to say, madam, that
I am not
But you sent me the corn Doctors
card
1t was true. Lasalle in going out
that. morning had picked up card of
a corn doctor from his bureau and put
it in his pocket. This, without glanc'
ing at, he had given to the servant
who had given it to her mistress
There was nothing to do but laugh ov'
er the joke.
